Haynes, Gourd in villages of.........

[bwskog]

I discovered what I believe is the father of Roger a William Gourd(e) of Barcombe, Yeoman (I have no clue what this means) I also have the year 1596 as a birth and then under that 1619 and a Thomas Gourd(e). Dang did not take very good notes in this area because I thought it was a dead end.

Walter Haynes has six children: Sufferance, Josiah, Thomas, Mary, John and Elizabeth (I believe she was the eldest and the only one married at the time of their crossing to America)married to Roger G.

If Fortune Hayne is related she would have to be the Child of either John or William Hayne if it is the brother or cousin. These two fellows are the elder brothers of Walter Haynes.

Hi
Ffortune Hayme married William Gourd 17.10.1626 Donhead St Mary, Wilts which is 3 miles from Shaftesbury (source Bishops Transcripts). She was buried in Donhead St Andrew in 1686. A good number of the marriages in Donhead St Mary say that 1 or more parties are from Shaston (ie Shaftesbury)
So far I have not found Ffortune's christening. In Donhead Andrew there are 2 christenings for Haymes, Ursula 1590 & Grace 1627. Grace is d William, so it is possible that Ffortune is connected to them.
I would estimate Ffortunes birth as circa 1600-1606. Gillingham , Dorset has 3 Haymes Edward 1580, Johanna, 1584 & Susannah 1606 again a possible family

In terms of Sutton, Wilts has Sutton Benger, Sutton Mandeville, Sutton Veny & Sutton Waldron.
Could Sudbury be Studley which is in Wilts?

Hi
I would expect Yeoman in this context to mean a farmer who owned their land as distinct from one who farmed land owned by the manor. ie Freehold rather than Copyhold land

I was interested to see the name Haynes.

I have traced my family tree back to Edward Haynes of the parish of West Knoyle and Mary Troubridge of Norton Bavant who were married 21 Jan 1765, witnesses were Joseph Trowbridge and Thomas Clift.

Please can anyone add any further information such as the possible parents of this couple ?

Is there a connection with your families discussed above ?
